Bandai Namco Debuts Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon Gameplay Footage

Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon, the latest high-octane action game by FromSoftware, Inc. and Bandai Namco Europe S.A.S. will release globally on August 25. Combining the 25 years of experience developing the ARMORED CORE franchise and action games in the Elden Ring, and Dark Souls franchise, Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon is full of mech action, including fast-paced battles, in-depth customization, and thrilling boss fights. The game is coming to PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam, and is now available to pre-order at participating retailers and on Bandai Namco Store.

A mysterious new substance called "Coral" was discovered on the remote planet, Rubicon 3. As an energy source, this substance was expected to dramatically advance humanity's technological and communications capabilities. Instead, it caused a catastrophe that engulfed the planet and the surrounding stars in flames and storms, forming a Burning Star System. Almost half a century later, Coral has resurfaced on Rubicon 3, a planet now contaminated and sealed off by the catastrophe. Extra-terrestrial corporations and resistance groups fight over control of the substance. The player infiltrates Rubicon as an independent mercenary and finds themselves in a struggle over the substance with the corporations and other factions.
Featuring highly mobile and highly customizable mechas, ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON will put players in fast-paced battles, where they can make full use of offensive and defensive maneuvers on both land and in the air to overcome foes.


To be the most successful and profitable mercenary on Rubicon 3, players must master rapidly changing combat distances, using the environment for protective cover, and omni-directional battles to overcome challenging enemies and situations.

Pre-order now and get ready for the global launch of Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon on August 25.

This will make Mechwarrior seem like Bezerk. If those controls are real wow.

Yeah that movement/jetpack dodge shit is mental, if that is in the game, I need this.
Ferrum MasterIt looks like PS3 era game...
Detail's alright, but yeah, bleak shit :D Still its palatable to me, better than that Star Trek thing we got up earlier. Other than the picture, look at the motion animation and stuff. It says Gameplay trailer...

Looks cool. Better than I was expecting. Looks like a solid From Software game to me.

Graphics aren’t everything, if the controls and gameplay are great, I really could less about the graphics. A lot of the RPGs from XSEED have been really good ports and don’t have face melting graphics. I haven’t touched an Armored Core game since my PS2, looking forward to this.

Ugh cringe.

Looks so cheesy with the animations and ice skating floating.

Detail and texturing also very poor.

You've never played Armored Core before, I take it?

Your PS3 must have been a hell of a lot more powerful than mine!

Looks like a fusion of AC4/AC4A and ACV; leaning more towards AC4 due to the seemingly prevalent use of boosting everywhere, as well as the point-blank explosion (which in AC4 was weaponizing your shield by overloading it).
